Kraftwerk - Radioaktivität (William Orbit Remix) 1991

Few days ago I did a DJ Session in MOOG Club in Barcelona, Pure electro.
One of the records I selected was this one, the Kraftwerk's Radioactivity remixed by this grammy multi-awared musician, William Orbit, a real freak with the electronic instruments.
One of the things that amaze me more of this version (a part of that he just put the Electro-Funk feeling to this great old song from the masters) is the date and the technics he used with the sampler, you know, this stuff with the voices like Daft Punk or later groups make very popular, changing pitches and repeating wovels. I don't really remember a single other song before 1991 that used this technic like that.
Anyway, this is a dedication to pioneers, and lucky me, I have this vinyl in my power!
